Central and Peripheral example (#012), scanning smartphone

[Anonymous]

Hi,

   

I start scanning with 's' cap entry in example #12 "Central and Peripheral" project. The red led in the kit is on indicating Pioner kit is scanning as Central.

   

Then, I set my Galaxy S4 smartphone as visible during 2 min. but pioner kit device is not able to detect S4. 

   

Any idea why not detect it ?

   

Thanks in advance.

   

Asier.

Hi,

   

Many phonesonly uses bluetooth classic when it is advertising.

   

However, when acting as a Central, it scans for both classic and Bluetooth low energy devices. Please check whether the phone supports low energy advertisement.
